LCHH does not intend to share your personally identifiable information with third parties, except to comply with legal requirements, cooperate with law enforcement, prevent fraud and other crimes, and protect legal rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there may be circumstances in which we share such personal information without notifying you, if we, in good faith, believe disclosure is necessary to comply with legal or regulatory requirements; to comply with a subpoena or court order; to cooperate with law enforcement or other governmental investigations (without necessarily requiring the law enforcement or government agency requesting the information to formally serve us with a subpoena); to prevent or investigate a possible crime, such as fraud or identity theft; to enforce a contract; to protect the legal rights, property or safety of LCHH, its members, managers, shareholders, partners, officers, directors, employees and agents, other users, or the public in general, or to protect your vital interests.  We also reserve the right to report to appropriate law enforcement or government agencies any activities that we, in good faith, believe to be unlawful without providing notice to you.

If we merge or are combined with any other organization, or if we transfer assets or operations to another organization or company, we may disclose your personally identifiable information to third parties in connection with such sale, merger, or transfer.

Our Commitment To Data Security

To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect through the Site.  It is important that you understand, however, that no website or database is completely secure or “hacker proof” and we cannot guarantee security of the information you submit to us.  You are responsible for taking personal steps to protect your personal information against unauthorized disclosure or misuse, for example, by protecting your password from unauthorized use or disclosure.

Our Commitment To Children's Privacy

Protecting the privacy of children is especially important to us. For that reason, we do not knowingly solicit, collect, or maintain information from, or market to, anyone under eighteen years of age, and no part of our Site is knowingly structured to attract anyone under the age of eighteen. If you are not eighteen years of age or older, you may not use this Site and should not provide any information about yourself through this Site.  Our goal is to comply with applicable laws and regulations relating to the collection and use of information from children, including the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of the United States and other applicable laws or regulations.  Please be aware that there are parental control tools available online that can be used to prevent children from submitting information online without parental permission or from accessing material that is harmful to minors.  If you believe that we received information from a child or other person protected under such laws, please notify us immediately.

External Links

For your convenience, we may provide links to websites owned and operated by unrelated third parties.  Such third-party sites may have their own privacy policies, which we recommend you review prior to interacting with them.  This Privacy Policy applies only to the personal information collected through this Site and you agree that LCHH has no liability with respect to any third-party sites or their privacy practices.

Your continued use of the Site following any such change, including the submission of any personal information, constitutes your agreement that all personal information collected from, or about, you, from this Site, after the revised Privacy Policy is posted, will be subject to the terms of the revised Privacy Policy.
